Hi,
 
I have had a similar problem with my waffles and wheezing.  We took  him to 
the vet for it last year when I first noticed it.  It happened's  once in 
awhile.  The vet checked him out and said he was fine.  That  it was probably a 
allergy to something.  So we tried different bedding and  it didn't make to much 
of a difference.  But it went away,  I hear it  every so often but I just keep 
an eye on him and usually it goes away as quickly  as it starts.  It's weird 
but as long as his breathing is fine  and he is  eating and drinking  good.  I 
don't worry as much.  It is a scary sound so I do understand your concern,  
but my waffles  is his normal self.  Good luck with your piggy
 
No for my question to the group...  I have a piggy named pancake who  has one 
paw that is entirely black and the nails are black.  The problem  I'm having 
is cutting his nails on that paw.  They are so dark even with a  light I can't 
see through them.  Awhile ago one of his nails broke and the  vet said it was 
ok because the quick would retract,  which it did and  he (pancake) never 
acted any different, in fact I don't think he even knew  what happened.  But now 
it's like the nails are even darker and they really  need to get cut but I'm 
so afraid to cut them because the last time I  saw the quick through the nail 
it went almost to the end. None of his other  nails on the other paws have 
quick that long.  Any suggestions?? I don't  want them to get any longer but I'm 
afraid, please help? thanks
